Download or read book Spatiotemporal Modeling and Analysis in Marine Science written by Junyu He and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-11-29 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the development of earth observation technologies (such as satellite remote sensing, unmanned aerial vehicle, autonomous underwater vehicle, etc.), an era of big data with important and non-negligible spatial/temporal attributes comes. Novel and rigorous spatiotemporal methodologies and models are needed to process and analyze marine big data. Since many marine environmental processes, such as pollutants diffusion, algae distributions etc., vary or evolve across spatiotemporal domains, detecting the distributions and patterns of marine fauna and, particularly in the coastal regions, will improve our understanding of marine systems and can be beneficial in marine environmental management. The goals of this Research Topic, therefore, are two-fold: (a) to develop methodologies and models in theory and applications, including spatiotemporal geostatistics, geographic information system, deep learning, etc.; (b) to quantitatively gain the knowledge of the marine environment. This Research Topic will provide a platform for researchers to share and exchange their new knowledge gained in a spatiotemporal domain of marine or coastal regions. This Research Topic will cover, but is not limited to, the following areas: • Spatiotemporal variations of physical/chemical/biological indicators (such as chlorophyll, temperature, salinity, colorful dissolved organic matter, suspended solids, nutrients, microplastic, etc.) in marine. • Spatiotemporal variations of potential fishing grounds in marine. • Spatiotemporal variations of the ecosystems in coastal regions, such as salt marshes, mangroves, seagrass, macroalgae, etc. • Spatiotemporal distributions of the pollutants (such as heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, etc.) in marine and sediments. • Spatiotemporal evolution pattern modeling and prediction of the marine disasters and abnormal phenomena (such as algal bloom, typhoons, SST anomalies, etc).

Download or read book Tuberculosis and Air Travel written by World Health Organization and published by WHO. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The revised International Health Regulations, adopted in 2005, provide a legal framework for a more effective coordinated international response to emergencies caused by outbreaks of infectious diseases. A number of provisions are relevant to the detection and control of TB during air travel, strengthening the authority of WHO and of national public health authorities in this domain. Because of these important developments since the original guidelines were issued in 1998, WHO has prepared this revised version to take account of current public health risks that may arise during air travel and new approaches to international collaboration in dealing with them. The guidelines were developed with the collaboration of international experts in air travel medicine and other authorities. Implementing the recommendations will help to reduce the spread of dangerous pathogens across the globe and decrease the risk of infection among individual travellers.--Publisher's description.

Download or read book Amelia Earhart written by Marie K. Long and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2000-01-15 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Amelia Earhart disappeared on July 2, 1937, she was flying the longest leg of her around-the-world flight and was only days away from completing her journey. Her plane was never found, and for more than sixty years rumors have persisted about what happened to her. Now, with the recent discovery of long-lost radio messages from Earhart's final flight, we can say with confidence that she ran out of gas just short of her destination of Howland Island in the Pacific Ocean. From the beginning of her flight, a series of tragic circumstances all but doomed her and her navigator, Fred Noonan. Authors Elgen M. and Marie K. Long spent more than twenty-five years researching the mystery surrounding Earhart's final flight before finally determining what happened. They traveled over one hundred thousand miles to interview more than one hundred people who knew some part of the Earhart story. They draw on authoritative sources to take us inside the cockpit of the Electra plane that Earhart flew and recreate the final flight itself. Because Elgen Long began his own flying career not long after Earhart's disappearance, he can describe the equipment and conditions of the time with a vivid first-hand accuracy. As a result, this book brings to life the primitive conditions under which Earhart flew, in an era before radar, with unreliable communications, grass landing strips, and poorly mapped islands. Amelia Earhart: The Mystery Solved does more than just answer the question, What happened to Amelia Earhart? It reminds us how daring early aviators such as Earhart were as they risked their lives to push the technology of the day to its limits -- and beyond.
